This Irish film is on now at the Manchester Cornerhouse.
The focus is child abuse on a poverty stricken estate in Ireland, and the victims run away to Dublin for some fun and end up living on the streets, which turns out to be worse. The ending is a huge let down, as they simply return home. That's it.
It bears a strong resemblance to Anne Enright's The Gathering: Ireland, alcoholism, child abuse, violence and poverty.
